A wonderful show, with exceptional dancers, musicians and stage sets. The dinner was excellent too, and the waiters were very kind. The only flaw in the experience, unrelated to the show itself but due to the agency that organized it, is that we had booked a round-trip hotel transfer, but on the way there we waited in vain for about an hour and nobody came, so we arrived late to the show.

We liked the gauchos' dance with the boleadoras and the solo performances the most. The singer was great, too. The table service was very attentive.

The show is spectacular; we went with our kids, and they were glued to the stage from start to finish. I highly recommend the experience. Everything was well organized from start to finish. The only thing to reconsider is the food prices inside the Tango.

Travel back to 1940s Buenos Aires in a sweeping tango spectacle blending cinematic flair, folklore, and electric footwork.

Just steps from the iconic Obelisk, this historic restored MGM movie palace dazzles with its restored art deco architecture—think velvet seats, gilded details, and old-Hollywood charm.

A full live orchestra, evocative set pieces, and masterful dancers recreate tango’s rise from smoky barrios to glittering salons.

Choose the dinner package for a decadent 3-course Argentine meal with Malbec. Book Tango Porteño now for a night of sultry tango, historic glamour, and unforgettable Argentine culture.

Did you know? “Porteño” means someone from Buenos Aires—expect passionate tangos, humorous cabaret sequences, and even gaucho-style malambo

The 90-minute production traces tango's evolution from its Río de la Plata origins to its contemporary form through expressive choreography, live music, and theatrical storytelling. More than 25 artists take the stage alongside a live orchestra and acclaimed vocalists, while elaborate costumes and grand scenography bring each performance to life. If you've selected a dinner package, your evening begins with a gourmet menu inspired by classic Buenos Aires cuisine before the show starts, creating a complete cultural and culinary experience.
